planning my week, originally uploaded by scrappyfran.

I've decided to combine this blog with my everyday blog Callaloo Soup to make life a little simpler for me. I also restarted the 365 challenge, because as was obvious I fell off that wagon! So if you want to follow my daily photos feel free to click on over!

tabletop tartine, originally uploaded by scrappyfran.

Lucy and I had lunch at this great little place called l'Epicérie. They specialise in tartines. A tartine is basically a slice of bread spread or covered with something (usually butter or jam); this restaurant specialises in all kinds of tartines. This one was "confiture d'oignons aux gingembre et terrine de pintade"; - candied onion and ginger with a guinea fowl terrine
